Cutest

Name: Lucy
Breed: Beagle Terrier Mix
Fun Fact: “Lucy is a 3 year old Beagle Terrier mix I recieved from Barcs animal

The woman who adopted her felt that the best place for Lucy was with me and my family. So… she gave her to us. I was so surprised I cried and hug her. I knew it was meant to be and so did Lucy. Now she sleep on the sofa and requires pets daily 😊❤.”
